As part of its plan to intensify stir against Finance Minister K M Mani seeking his resignation in the bar bribery case, CPI(M)-led LDF today decided to organise a protest march to the state Assembly here on March 13 when the budget is to be presented.
Addressing reporters here after a LDF state committee meeting, Front Convener Vaikom Viswan said it was decided to carry out protests in front of government offices in all Assembly constituencies on that day.
He said if the Chief Minister did not remove Mani, the Opposition would try all possible means to oust him.
"Thousands of people are expected to participate in the Assembly march on March 13. Similar marches and sieges will be held in front of respective government offices in all Assembly constituencies across the state simultaneously," Viswan said.
The LDF also decided to carry out demonstrations across the state on March 12 and symbolic trial of the Finance Minister in panchayats and municipalities on March 7 to press their demand, he said.
Earlier in the day, the CPI(M)-led LDF Opposition boycotted the Governor's address on the first day of the budget session to mark their protest against Mani and the government over the bar bribery issue.
